Israeli army says air force 'eliminated terrorist cell' in South Lebanon

The Israeli military said Saturday that its air force had eliminated a "terrorist cell" operating near its troops in South Lebanon, despite the ceasefire there.

"The IDF eliminated a terrorist cell operating in proximity to Israeli soldiers in southern Lebanon, in the area of the forward defense line dedicated to preventing imminent threats to Israel's northern communities," it said, without specifying how many suspected militants were killed.
